"As a child of divorce, all I can say is that's terrible news for those children, and that's all you can really say," Theroux said, referring to Angelina Jolie and Pitt's six children. "It's boring to sort of comment on anything else. People are having a bad time — that's horrible."

Theroux continued, saying he believes it's "nonsense" that Aniston is being talked about in relation to Pitt and Jolie's divorce.

"There's an endless appetite for trash, apparently, though everyone would say that they don't have that appetite," Theroux said.

"But I think a lot of people do because people buy it. But there are bigger things to b*tch about. It's shocking how much bandwidth things can take up when there are far more important things going on in the world."
